Panathinaikos Athens vs Ajax Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Sridhar in Europa League Predictions
Ajax will fancy their chances of coming back from Greece with a positive result as they play Panathinaikos. This Europa League third-round qualifying first-leg match will be played on Thursday in Athens, with the prediction that the visitors will avoid defeat.
The winner of this two-legged tie will play the winner of Bodo/Glimt or Jagiellonia Bialystok in the playoff round. The losers will be transferred to the Conference League Main Path playoff round. The Greeks finished fourth in last season’s league playoffs and started their Europa League campaign in the second qualifying round.
A 6-1 aggregate win over Botev Plovdiv gave them a ticket to this round, and that included a 2-1 win at home. In fact, those two matches remain their only competitive matches of the season so far. Ajax are also only just starting their competitive season, with their 4-1 aggregate win over Vojvodina in the last round starting their campaign. The Dutch powerhouses had four wins in a row in the friendlies, building up to the season.
This is going to be a key season for Ajax, who are looking to reboot under new coach Francesco Farioli after finishing fifth in the Eredivisie last season. They had a 3-1 win away in Serbia over Vojvodina in the Europa League, so is this match likely to see another Ajax power-packed performance?
